The venomous snake was captured on the Belmont Shooting Range near a large creek system, which is a highly popular environment as the species thrive in a moist habitat."

However, snakes are present in pretty much all cities. They certainly are in Adelaide.
Brisbane, being sub-tropical and therefore wetter than southern cities, attracts a lot of wildlife. Snakes, lizards, bats, and the worst of all...Queenslanders.

Are red-bellied black snakes the largest snakes in Australia?

This is our biggest.
It's a scrub python.
They are rather friendly and like to make house calls.

WHY he wanted to be a snake catcher is another, more perplexing query.
